I have done some basic screen scraping with the telnetlib provided in the Python Standard Library. It works fine, but when you get into terminal emulation, trying to screen scrape and program a script that understands the escape codes gets a bit more difficult. It would be great if I could see my script run on a real terminal and debug it from a user perspective.

A Telnet app is nothing but a GUI on top of a socket on port number 21. It would be more expedient to open the socket on port 21, write to it as if it were a file and read the results back the same way.
